IS NEVER TO DIE


I have slept so long, for so long 
There lies my regret, sighing and grieving 
Had I known I could tremble so 
What now I know 
I would never have shown my soul 

Leaping, like an eager flame 
After all, who is to blame? 
There lies my regret, sighing and grieving 

And as this evening falls 
To close, for closed eyes 
Take that backward glance 
And see, see what lies behind 

Recall the time when all the world just seemed to recline 
Within our hands and was just washed away 
Like the fleeting summer rain 
Gentle memories of our finest day 
Can we ever hope to regain 
The innocence of youth? 
The sordid truth 
Our visions turn sour 
All colours turn to grey 
Goodbye my tender dreams 
Is there a better day? 
Regain 

To live on in hearts is never to die
